You guys that run and cycle inspire me. I look forward to being able to run and bike at a good pace and for a good distance as I lose weight.

I worked out upper body, went as heavy as I could with good form, upped my weight on a few lifts. I'm doing 3 sets of 5 to try to build some mass, and keep the muscle I have while I lose weight. Also gets me out of the gym faster which I like.

Luscious, looking less flabby is rewarding, I love to watch my muscles while bringing a weight down.

Weekend activity was mostly shoveling, but I’m not complaining, by this time last year we’d had seven major storms. Sunday was not a healthy day, my beloved Patriots caused interesting cardio moments, but I don’t think I can count sitting on the couch drinking beer shouting as exercise!
